Renee "Dugas" Nugent and Warren Daniel "Danny" Willett are on the November 3, 2026 open primary ballot for this seat on the 35th Judicial District Court. Every voter in Grant Parish elects this seat, since Louisiana district judges are elected district-wide across the 35th Judicial District (La. R.S. 13:477).

Trial court judge. A trial judge presides over criminal and civil cases at the first level: bail and pleas, motions, trials, sentencing and civil judgments. Judges are bound by state law and appellate precedent and are barred by judicial conduct rules from campaigning on how they would rule. Most states elect trial judges on a nonpartisan ballot; the term and the courts a judge may sit on vary by state.
